A career woman or a housewife?

Career Woman

House Wife

Either

[Miristheiss]

Housewife.

Here is the kicker. I want both. Actually my wife is/was both.

I didn't want a woman who thought/believed/lived as if her job, her career was her purpose for existence and her number one priority. That being said, I don't want a woman who is just home 24/7 and never works. She can have a job, I was just never interested in someone who was so hectic and busy and had a high end job, a job that made her wear her masculine to do, that took all her time and focus and all her decisions were around her job. Planning to move for her work, traveling for her work, leaving home to study abroad or something just because she might get a higher pay, working 60 hours a week... etc.

When we have kids (we have 2) then, I wanted a woman who would be mom and raise the kids while I am at work. Once they are in school, fine, go back to work even if it is only part time.

It is a lie for the current youth to think and believe women of 100 years ago were all stay at home moms. Women have always worked. If they didn't have kids many probably worked a lot. Secretaries, school teachers, seamstresses, nurse, beauticians... etc. Women have worked it just wasn't their main priority in life and most had families and they stopped working then.

Daycare shouldn't be raising someone's kids.

In my culture we don't in believe house wife.. because we don't believe girl marry house
We believe wives are homemaker two different things

When it comes to spouses, I believe what’s of greater importance is your emotional bond and connection with each other.


Pursuing a career may make someone less emotionally available (but also not necessarily).


Being a stay-at-home wife may make someone more emotionally available (but also not necessarily.)


I believe the ideal setup would be to work on the same business together — that way you won’t have to choose work over your partner or vice versa because you’re in it together.


That’s the goal I’m working towards now with my S/O — to build a company together.


In the meantime though, I don’t mind being the breadwinner at all. I’m happy that I’m able to protect and provide fully for her, indefinitely.


If she wants to pursue a career, I’ll support her.


If she wants to be a stay-at-home wife, I’ll support her.


What’s important is that we stay close, since we both value our emotional bond very much, and we prioritize it over monetary achievements.

Whatever makes you happy you can do both you can do none of the above your choice

Depends on the financial situation and availability of the partner (if she has one). My boyfriend's working to be a fly-in-fly-out worker so we've made an agreement that if we have a kid together, I'd have to put the job on pause. That's the only situation that I'd agree to be a housewife, because I don't have the financial security to do without working.

housewife hands down. I have never met a career woman that I was attracted to or was attractive for that matter. career women tend to be very masculine which is a huge turn off. I love feminine women. shapely, dresses, long hair, soft, kind, caring, gentle, supportive etc.

I ideally want to be a house wife with a self made business where I can design my items from home and still not need a babysitter and clean my own home and cook for my family, THAT would be idea while still running a business.
I did everything too slow but I definitely could have done all of that by this moment. Now I can' still do it but it sucks that I waited so long.
Anyhow, What described is ideal in my opinion.

Whether someone chooses to pursue a career or be a housewife is a personal decision that depends on individual goals, values, and circumstances. Both options are valid, and it's important to respect and support individuals in their choices. Many people may also find a balance between career and homemaking that works for them.

Not gonna lie the thought of not working and just taking care of the house and partner isn't the worst thing in the world, but i just can't imagine depending on a man especially since a lot of men pull out the “i pay for this and that so i can do/say whatever the hell i want” card and i cannot imagine being put in that place. Yeah im gonna be trying my best to marry a good man but you never really know, so why give them the opportunity to say shit like that to my face? Not just that, i just wanna have my own money and be able to do/buy anything i want without asking another person for it. So im forcing myself to have a career, as tempting as it is to just not have to.

[IslaTheWitch]

I would say both.

I'm a career woman, and I'm at home because I work from home without strict hours. I cover doctor appointments, school meetings and other more or less predictable events in my or my youngest kid life :D

[emeraldsaphire]

I think it's a seasonal thing. You work for a season, then you have kids for a season then when they are a bit older you go back into your work season

[swettannie]

what season are you on?

[BadApple69]

Either or both… doesn’t matter. What’s important is that she has a good personality, and we are compatible.

[Phoenix98]

I'm old fashioned so I'd prefer a housewife but I have nothing against women working and if that's what was needed both me and her working then obviously I'd be fine that.

[WhitneySnow]

According to the poll, girls want to be career women and guys want to marry housewives.

[Al_Musafir]

Either a housewife or a woman with a career in teaching or nursing/ladies' doctor.

[AnusNdaPainus]

Most women today are too lazy and incapable of being a career woman and a good wife and mother

the career woman is a bad deal

[straightmax12]

I would like to have a housewife, but it seems rare to find in the dating world.

[Anonymous]

Unless you're making $100k you can't afford a housewife. Most families need two incomes. It's a fantasy.

[colaman94]

Preferably childless housewife 🥴👌🏻

[colaman94]

I look down on ambitious women in terms of mate material. After all, im like without a brain 🧠 lol simple me. A career woman would dominate me, unwelcomed 🤕

[Trevelyan88]

Where is the neither option?

[Ms_Facesitter]

I prefer career. Else I wouldn't leave the house.

[thegreenyogi]

For now career woman.
